Father-in-law Zhu Di, I am so happy to marry the disfigured princess

"That's right, that's right, it's not in vain to waste our national teacher's painstaking efforts to train them. Seeing you today, the hard work was not in vain."

Li Xiao, who saw this scene not far away, couldn't help but said in relief.

Li Jinglong praised: "National teacher, this group of talented people can do it. Today, they are able to fight against those young masters from rich and powerful families. Great things can be achieved."

After all, the purpose of training this group of scholars is to fight against the country gentry and landlords. They have already seen the first signs today, and the Mavericks have tried their swords.

"That's right, but it's still a little short of heat."

Li Xiao smiled slightly and said, "Jing Long, guess what they will say when they go back?"

Li Jinglong thought for a long time, but couldn't think of a reason, so he couldn't help asking curiously: "National teacher, what do they want to say most?"

Li Xiao said calmly: "I'm afraid they can't wait to make contributions in their hearts!"

half a month later.

Return from journey.

Adding it all together, it has been three months since I came to Nanjing, and everyone has been reborn, full of ambitions, and there is a fire in their hearts, and they want to do business.

Sure enough, after returning, the scholars began to plead for orders.

Today, they were training on the school field as usual, and when it was time for the lunch break, people began to ask for orders, and then more and more people came.

"National teacher, let us go out and make contributions."

"That's right, we have been idle for three months without doing a single thing. We have nothing to repay the State Teacher's great kindness. We can only do things for the State Teacher."

"National teacher, let us go to make meritorious deeds, we are already hungry and thirsty!"

The scholars have been training for three months, and now they are full of energy. They have been holding back for three full months, and they are all exhausted.

This is what Li Xiao wants to see.

When a person is motivated, he cannot be stopped.

Li Xiao waved his hand: "No, you are not enough now, you still need to continue training."

"Enough is enough, please ask the national teacher to let us go out and make contributions!"

The scholars shouted in unison.

Seeing this, Li Xiao smiled lightly: "Can you do it?"

Everyone patted their chests, "We're fine!"

"Okay!" Li Xiaolang said: "After training for so long, everyone's growth is obvious to all. Our national teacher is very pleased. In the past three months, no one has run away, and no one has complained about suffering or tiredness. Now, you have been completely reborn. , since you want to make contributions so much, then start tomorrow!"

The voice fell.

The scholars are all happy.

Finally got down to business, finally started!

"Qiu Shui, is the staffing arranged properly?"

Li Xiao looked at Qiu Shui and asked.

A few days ago, Li Xiao handed over the situation of the yamen, townships, counties, villages, and fields in Yingtian Prefecture to Qiushui, who was counting, and asked him to organize them into a book, mark them on the map, and at the same time assign these scholars.

Qiu Shui came over, took out the assigned booklet and map and handed them to Li Xiao, saying: "Patriarch, the arrangements have been made, please have a look at the patriarch."

Li Xiao nodded, and took a look at the map. The county offices, townships, and villages were marked on the map, and their numbers were marked.

Each number represents a dormitory and represents a person.

There are more than [-] natural villages in Yingtianfu.

In ancient times, the village was the basic organizational form of society, the basic unit of rural society and peasant production, and the number was very large.

On the map, the population of the villages is also marked. The villages with a small population have only 30 people, and the villages with a large population have a population of about a thousand.

Calculated in this way, each of the fifteen hundred or so scholars will also serve as the head of the dormitory, so there are still vacancies for the vice president and dormitory staff. Li Xiao suddenly feels that there are not enough people.

The position of vice president can be vacant, but temporary workers can be hired locally.

Or when the national examination is held later, more jobs will be created, but this needs to wait until the national treasury is more abundant. After all, the current treasury expenditure is very large. In addition to war expenses, there are also construction and state building.

There is also a roster, which marks which person is in charge of which village, which is determined according to the ranking of the last glory match.

Those with high rankings go to villages with a large number of people. Such villages are difficult to manage and need powerful people to take charge, otherwise it will be difficult to intervene.

Those with low rankings and weak abilities will go to small villages with 30 people.

It is not a waste of resources, because the population has increased substantially with the new decree. Now the total population of Ming Dynasty is more than 6000 million. As long as various poll taxes and other taxes are cancelled, and the increase in food is added, it will naturally explode.

"Qiu Shui, you did a good job."

Li Xiao was very satisfied with Qiushui's arrangement. She spent three years cultivating his arithmetic and logic. She was very good at arranging tables.

"Thank you, Patriarch, for your compliment."

Qiu Shui Wanran saluted and said: "This is what a servant girl should do."

Li Xiao nodded slightly, then looked at the scholars, and said loudly: "You have successfully passed the hardships of the past three months, and passed the test of your national teacher. Originally, some of you would be the head of the house, and some of you would be the deputy head of the house. But our national teacher decided to designate you all as house chiefs, and you will be officials from today onwards, and the imperial court of Ming Dynasty ordered the chiefs of the official houses to enjoy the imperial salary!"

The voice fell.

The school field was boiling.

"What? We've all become dorm heads?"

"That's right, didn't you hear that? It's all from She Zhangzheng! He is a thirteenth-rank official and enjoys the imperial salary!"

"That's great. I took more than 900 people in the national exam this time. I thought it was a deputy. Thanks to the great grace of the National Teacher, you have helped us all."

"I heard that although the head of the Zhengshe District is a thirteenth-rank official, his salary is higher than that of a tenth-rank official."

"Yes, I've also heard that there is a 'going to the countryside subsidy', which is to leave the country and go to the countryside to be the head of the housing district. The monthly subsidy is five taels of silver. With this subsidy, the salary is very considerable."

All the talents were very happy.

Everyone thanked in unison: "Thank you, Master Guo!"

The sound resounded through the sky!

Li Xiao nodded slightly, and then said in a loud voice: "You will gain as much as you sow. In the future, you will work hard. The head of the dormitory will only be the starting point, not the end. Our national division will always pay attention to your political achievements, although it is only to manage The land of the village can become a rich village if it is done well! For example, the model chicken farming village in Dong’an County, Beiping City, produces 10 chickens every year, and the brick-burning village in Wanping, which produces [-] yuan of bricks and tiles every year. The common people's homes are all brick and tile houses. It is your political achievement to make the common people live a good life with good wine and good food! You are all carefully cultivated by the national teachers. .In the future, it is possible to be promoted to magistrates, magistrates, and even to be promoted to the capital as a capital official. Let's do it well!"

Li Xiao took advantage of the situation and drew a big pie, asking them to work hard.

In fact, it's not an empty pie. If they perform well, Li Xiao is very willing to promote these people. Now what Daming lacks is good officials with hard work.

The scholars were very happy to eat this big cake, because they knew that the national teacher is really not stingy, and said in unison: "We will definitely live up to the national teacher's expectations!"

"Very good, what I want is this spirit!"

Li Xiao nodded, and then asked someone to read the roster.

"Yu Qian was appointed as the village head of Tang Family in Yingtian Mansion, Jiangning Town, Qilin Township, and Tang Family."

"Yu Qian takes orders!"

Yu Qian was very excited, and finally started to get down to business, with a passion for Daming!
"Shi Qi has been appointed as the village head of Yingtian Mansion, Jiangning Town, Qilin Township, and Huanghua Village."

"Shi Qi takes command!"

"Xu Sanduo was appointed as the village chief of Yingtian Mansion, Jiangning Town, Qilin Township, and Gaolao Village."

"Squad Xu takes command!"

After a whole morning, everyone has appointed a position.

Soon, everyone received an appointment letter.

The appointment document, Li Xiao, has been filed in the household department, and he can report to the county office with the document.

The superior of the She District is the county government, which is under the control of the county magistrate.

They need to find the magistrate, and later they need to take money from the county government's bank to buy a piece of land in the village, and then build a dormitory building as an office space.

If you need to start an entrepreneurial project later, you also need to get money from the county government.

There must be many difficulties here, after all, why did the county magistrate take out money to do things for the dormitory?
However, these difficulties have to be solved by themselves.

the Rainbow comes after the storm?
"Okay! Everyone has received the appointment documents. How to do it next, don't you need to teach it again by your national teacher? You have already trained at the 'Daming Official Training Institute' at the end of last year." Li Xiao joked: "Everyone learned Three months, shouldn't you forget?"

That is last year.

All the top [-] candidates in the national examination have gone through this training.

The training is about how to set up housing estates in the countryside and how to lead the villagers to become rich.

In this series of steps, how should the dormitories be built, how to manage them, how to establish ledgers, and how to set up village enterprises according to the local conditions.

These Li Xiaos were drawn into booklets for them to study, and more than a dozen well-done dormitory heads in Beiping were also asked to pass on their experience to everyone.

Therefore, on this point, Li Xiao didn't need to waste his time talking.

Just let them go and they'll know what to do.

Last year's training time at the training academy was three months.

Food and housing are included, and there is a salary of five taels of silver every month.

Li Xiao trained them for another three months in Nanjing, also including food and housing, with a monthly salary of ten taels of silver.

In addition, Li Xiao gave them the reward of 20 taels of silver in the glory match.

In other words, almost every scholar has at least 65 taels of silver.

With these taels of silver, it is enough for them to buy clothes and use in the early stage. Later, the official salary comes down, and the monthly salary is close to 20 taels of silver, so life is guaranteed.

"National teacher, we still remember it." The scholars laughed loudly.

Li Xiao smiled and said: "That's good. In addition, I will arrange three soldiers to assist you in the early stage, and you can choose from the soldiers of Cixi Guard. But this is free and voluntary to help you, but you have to treat them well." , delicious and delicious, don’t be too picky, you know?”

Cixi Guards soldiers were already paid, so Li Xiao didn't plan to pay them.

But let these dormitory chiefs take care of their food and drink, those soldiers will definitely be willing.

In addition, they got along relatively well during this period of time, so let them choose familiar people by themselves.

Let these scholars go to the county government to report alone, which is somewhat weak.

Each assigned three soldiers, even if they didn't do anything, standing behind them would have a different aura.

Presumably, even if the magistrate doesn't want to deal with it, he can't make it too ugly on the surface.

After all, he was sent out by himself, so he couldn't be too shabby.

"Thank you, Master Guo!"

Hearing that each of them could get three soldiers to help the village, the scholars said excitedly: "We will definitely take good care of the brothers in Cixiwei, and we will not neglect!"

"Okay! You can pack your bags today, and report for duty tomorrow, besides."

Li Xiao pointed at this group of scholars and cursed: "You guys are so sour, no wonder you had conflicts with people at the West Lake. What kind of rags are you wearing? It makes people look disgusted. I threw away the clothes. Take the reward money I gave you and go to the street to buy some decent clothes. Don’t go out to embarrass me. Don’t be reluctant to part with a few coins. There is a saying that I am born to be useful, and all the money is gone Come back again. If you are an iron rooster, go out, let alone a person trained by our teacher, it is shameful. People rely on clothes and horses and saddles, and you are dressed in rags. Go to the village and say that you will lead the villagers to get rich. Do you think anyone believes you? Can you do your job well?"

Li Xiao cursed at the group of scholars.

It’s okay not to scold, these people are used to being poor, and they can save as much as they can.

It is necessary to use scolding to change their consumption concepts.

It doesn't mean to be extravagant and wasteful, but if you have money, the basic necessities of life must be at least passable.

Li Xiao scolded, and some of the scholars below were moved and cried.

Sincerity for heart, they could feel the painstaking efforts that Li Xiao poured into them.

"I will wait until the national teacher is disappointed."

The scholars cried out crying.

Moved, really moved.

They have never encountered such a noble person who gave them a stage and cared about their lives.

"Many men in full house, act like daughters!"

Li Xiao cursed, then waved his hand and said, "Go away, it's annoying."

"I'll wait for orders."

The scholars stood upright one by one, bowed deeply to Li Xiao, and then touched the tears to fade away.

We all go together and go out to buy new clothes.

In addition, the scholars also brought the three selected soldiers, and invited the soldiers to go to the restaurant for a drink.

After all, the national teacher has reminded them not to be iron cocks.

These soldiers brothers will help them later, so we must treat them kindly.

Gradually, the scholars and soldiers from the entire barracks went to the market.

It suddenly became empty.

"It's strange. I actually... feel a little bit reluctant."

Li Xiao looked at the empty school grounds and couldn't help but say.

Eating and living together for three months, getting along day and night for three months, more or less cultivated some feelings.

This group of talents did not disappoint Li Xiao.

Li Xiao deeply felt that these scholars were actually ambitious.

It's just that they are not talented enough to write stereotyped essays, so they cannot be admitted to fame.

But some aspects are not bad, they just lack an opportunity.

And now, I gave them this chance.

They are also willing to seize this opportunity to climb up.

"National teacher, if you treat them with sincerity and temper them, they will naturally feel it. You have the grace to know them. Although you did not worship you as a master, you have the grace to teach the way."

"It's normal to be reluctant to get along day and night for three months. This is why the general has been with the soldiers for a long time, and the soldiers are willing to go through life and death for the general."

"In other words, these talents are now the soldiers in your hands, the national teacher."

Li Jinglong explained with a smile that he also felt the same way.

He didn't know it before, but when he was in Cixi, he discovered that if he treated the soldiers with sincerity, the soldiers would return double.

Such an army is called an army whose soldiers are united, able to win battles, and fight fierce battles.

Li Xiao deeply felt the same way: "That's right, they are all soldiers of the national division, and they have opened up territories for me."

Li Jinglong nodded, and then said worriedly: "However, National Teacher, this time you sent them to report and do business, but you didn't let the magistrates of the county government know in advance. This time they go out, I'm afraid it will be very difficult. Likely to fail."

"Of course I know."

Li Xiao smiled slightly: "It's not that they may fail, but they will definitely fail."

Hearing this, Li Jinglong was a little puzzled, "Then why did the national teacher let them go out?"

Li Xiao pointed to the sky, and said in a loud voice: "Now is the time for them to be full of ambition. The more they are at this time, the more difficult it is for them to go too smoothly, so I deliberately didn't prepare everything. How can we see a rainbow without going through the wind and rain? Experience It takes one setback to understand this truth.”

"the Rainbow comes after the storm."

Li Jinglong muttered to himself, and suddenly realized that there was still training.
The national teacher has its own way of cultivating talents.

Li Xiao looked at the sky and said slowly: "In addition to tempering, there is another meaning, which is to tell the family gentry of Yingtian Mansion that the war is about to begin" (end of this chapter)
